To the tune of a Swedish folk song. Original Swedish lyrics by J. Näslund; translator unknown.

~pp~

Day wears to a farewell, dearest,

Our ways go soon apart.

Life that in my hands yet slumbers

Will presently depart

Sorrow is a lonesome bluebird

That slumbers where you live,

Lingering yet at your gate,

Closer than you would believe.

Death's so dreary and so lasting,

Life is but so brief,

Sad to start alone the journey,

It fills your heart with grief.

~/pp~

Lojban translation (Arnt Richard Johansen):

stali le do bartu serti
